Who you are

- Strong experience within the beauty, skincare, health or wellness industries is preferable, in a D2C subscription led brand, with broad experience creating digital marketing campaigns and paid social creative
- Exceptional animation, video-editing and short-form storytelling skills, with a strong understanding of pacing, hooks, messaging hierarchy and what makes performance-led advertising engaging and effective

- Excellent knowledge of the full Adobe suite, including Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro and After Effects, with Figma ideally, alongside strong graphic design fundamentals across typography, composition, layout, colour and visual hierarchy
- Confident across animation, video editing, compositing, sound design and basic colour grading, with experience editing UGC and creator content and adapting assets across multiple formats and placements
- Experience with AI-powered motion and animation tools to enhance creativity, improve efficiency, streamline workflows and explore new ways of storytelling
- A highly creative, open-minded and meticulous designer who is comfortable testing and iterating ideas, balancing strong creative craft with commercial objectives and working at pace in a start-up environment
- Strong collaboration and communication skills, with the confidence to present and explain creative decisions, work closely with Brand, Copy, Growth and NPD teams, and independently own projects and priorities at midweight level
What the job involves
- Be a champion and guardian of our visual brand identity to deliver consistently high-quality creative across all touchpoints
- Own motion projects from brief and initial concept through to storyboard, animation, editing and final delivery
- Concept and execute performance-led animations and short-form videos for our paid marketing channels, including Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, PR, OOH and more, with strong hooks, clear messaging hierarchy, engaging pacing and conversion in mind
- Work closely with Growth and Creative teams to understand performance data and use creative learnings to inform, iterate and improve future ads
- Edit and elevate UGC and creator content into engaging, polished paid-social assets. Adapt creative effectively across different platforms, placements, formats and aspect ratios
- Develop multiple creative iterations and variations for testing across hooks, messaging, formats, CTAs and visual treatments
- Balance brand consistency with performance, finding new ways to evolve and test our creative while maintaining a strong visual identity
- Work closely with others in the Brand & Creative Team to bring innovative ideas to the table. Design captivating assets from ideation to delivery for our organic social channels to help build a community of brand advocates

Our take
Back in 2018, Skin + Me's founders identified a huge problem in the world of skincare: people don’t just struggle with their skin – they struggle with how they’re supposed to deal with it. With no truly effective solutions available, the company set out to build a pioneering online dermatology service that provides personalised skincare.
Skin + Me takes customers through a simple online medical consultation and work with dermatologists to prescribe a treatment, personalised to the individual. Part of the company's unique selling point is that its made-to-order formulation arrives through a subscription box each month and comes in a ‘Daily Doser’ – a specially designed bottle that dispenses the exact amount of the product needed for daily application.
Skin + Me is supported by a team of dermatologists, pharmacists and direct-to-consumer experts, which allows it to deliver across the business - from skin science to building the technology platform behind it. The company's growth plans include continual development of its services while ensuring it sticks to its ethos: providing desired, effective, and personalised skincare.
